Prince Si of Peng
Yuanze, Prince Si of Peng, was styled Yi. He was first made Prince of Jing and sent out as Prefect of Wu Prefecture. In the tenth year of Zhenguan his fief was changed, and he became Area Commander-in-chief of Sui Prefecture, but was removed for the extravagance and presumption of his caps and robes. After a long while he became Prefect of Li Prefecture, and now humbled himself and disciplined his conduct. When he died he was posthumously made Grand Minister of Education and Grand Area Commander-in-chief of Jing Prefecture, and buried beside the Xian Mausoleum. Gaozong, going up to the Wangchun Palace, passed his funeral and wept bitterly for him. Edit
He had no son, and the son of the Prince of Huo, Xuan, was made his heir; in the Longshuo era Xuan was enfeoffed as Prince of Nanchang. When he died his son Zhijian succeeded him, and in the Kaiyuan era was Chief Minister of the Court of the Imperial Clan. Edit
